2012 Is 2 Hours & A Half Long, And I Mean Long.


I don't want to ruin anything for the lucky people that haven’t seen 2012, but in it, there are not one, not two, but three sequences where the same group of people escape via a plan while the ground is crumbling away beneath them. THREE TIMES! I guess the film makers really liked the idea of people escaping from the earth swallowing them whole as their plan barely makes it off of the run way. The first time it happens in the film it is kind of interesting to look at the second time it was just kind of weird since they just did the same thing not 20 minutes earlier in the film. It was the third time that really struck me as lazy and almost insulting as a person watching the film. Sure the special effects are good but they are not so good that you would want to see the same one three times in a row. 2012 makes Armageddon look like a masterpiece. Nuff said.
